Is that the case?

Ah Xin always thought that Jin Xinyan was a person who was used to being quiet, and only Deng Shuang could make him happy, but it turned out that this was not the case!

Deng Ao coughed twice, thinking about Ah Yu's thoughts.

He used chopsticks to clip a piece of mutton roll for Ah Yu, and said with a smile: "Isn't it that Ah Yu has been clamoring to eat the Xia offering!" Why did you bring up the offering, but you didn't move your chopsticks? This mutton is very fresh, try it......"

No one asked Jin Xinyan why he was happy, so he happily used this lunch.

When he returned to his residence, he was inexplicably a little uneasy in his heart.

She rubbed Manbao's dog head and looked at Aoba on the side: "Did I miss something, why do I always feel that something is wrong?" ”

Faced with such a question, Aoba was silent for a moment.

She didn't know what Ah Yu encountered at the dinner table, but she had long developed the habit of Ah Yu asking questions and answering them.

After waiting for a while, she finally found something in her mind that Ah Yu had forgotten.

"The girl forgot that Doctor Yang went back to the house first, I just heard Qingrui say that when the old lady came back, I specially asked Doctor Yang for questioning."

It's just a question, what could be wrong.

Ah Yu waved his hand, and was about to let Aoba skip this topic, his grandfather would be related to the poison on Deng Shuang's body, because he was entrusted by the old man, it was normal, and there was nothing to say.

Aoba pursed her lower lip and whispered, "That, before Doctor Yang left, the girl persuaded him to stay and have a meal before leaving......"

That's right.

Ah Shen originally wanted to talk carefully about the poison on Deng Shuang's body with Doctor Yang, after all, when Doctor Yang explained the pathology, it was very easy to understand.

She wanted to pull Deng Shuang to listen to it together, and she could also give Deng Shuang more confidence in healing.

In order to keep Doctor Yang, Ah Yu also carefully described how delicious the Paxia offering was, and how superb the chefs in the Deng Mansion were who moved out of the palace.

If Divine Doctor Yang casually mentioned this matter when answering Old Lady Wen's words, it would not be very good!

Ah Yu rubbed her face, if her grandfather knew about her disobedience, he would definitely be angry.

Old Lady Wen only briefly asked about the toxins on Deng Shuang's body, and after it could indeed be cured, he put his mind at ease for the time being, and let Divine Doctor Yang retreat first, but did not ask in as much detail as Ah Yu imagined.

He has more things to worry about now.

Just as Deng Shuang was the person entrusted to him by his old friend, the Fan family in Yulin Pass was equally important to Mrs. Wen.

The biggest difference between the Deng family and the Fan family is that the elders of one family have passed away, while the elders of the other family are still guarding the border.

After coming to Mocheng, Mrs. Wen originally wanted to turn around to Yulin Pass before leaving, to see if his old friend had gray hair now, but because of Ah Yu's words, he stayed in Mocheng for the time being.

Although people can't go to the border for a while, they can still continue to exchange letters.

The correspondence between Mocheng and Yulin Pass is much closer than that between Kyoto and Border Pass.

In just over a month, Mrs. Wen has already exchanged letters with Mrs. Fan twice, and he sent another letter a few days ago. However, he waited for a long time, and he didn't see anyone from Yulin Pass.

Ethereal.

It was as if the letters you had exchanged with me were a dream.

The intuition of many years of recuperation inexplicably became acute at this time, and after the old lady Wen waved Doctor Yang away, she unconsciously paced square steps in the study, back and forth, and still couldn't settle down.

The warm winter sun hides behind the heavy clouds, like a storm is coming.

Seeing her grandfather's restless appearance, Ah Yu tried to ask, but could not get an accurate answer.

She returned to her room and began to pull through her mahogany box, the last one was similarly decorated for the letters she had written along the way, but unfortunately it did not come in handy.

The previous letters were received by her elsewhere, and the mahogany box was used to store the letters sent to her by Xie Huai'an.

Ah Yu made an agreement with Xie Huai'an that when Xie Huai'an settled down in Yulin Pass, or when the first war was over, he would send someone to send her a letter to keep her safe.

At this time, the mahogany box was empty, and there was nothing.

When Aoba came in with tea and snacks, he saw Ah Yu holding an empty box.

She put the tray in her hand on the table and asked, "Girl, I'm looking for what I wrote before, and the last time you asked me to put all the papers I wrote in the bookcase, it's no longer in the mahogany box." Are you looking for those? I'll go show it to you......"

Ah Yu shook his head and put the empty box in his hand aside.

Asked Aoba: "Xie Huai'an has been gone for a long time, why did you say he hasn't sent me a letter yet?" ”

Xie Huai'an has always been the most obedient to the agreement, and since she met, she has never seen the other party miss the appointment.

Once upon a time, she was in Kyoto, and Xie Huai'an was in Meaux, and he was able to deliver the reply to her as scheduled.

Why, now that the distance is close, there is no reply.

Aoba looked at Ah Yu and frowned, and subconsciously wanted to comfort Ah Yu: "Young Master Xie is going to join the army, Xu is the training in the army is too hard, so he doesn't have time to write a letter to the girl!" ”

None of them knew how the soldiers at the border were trained, but the folk often said that it was very hard.

"Maybe it has something to do with the traitors sent by Mo Cheng......," Qing Rui suddenly said, "Mo City has been closed for a long time because of traitors before, maybe a similar situation has been encountered in Yulin Pass, and when the order to close the city is lifted, the reply from the young master of the Xie family should also come." ”

There may be thousands of late responses, and Qingrui's guess is only one of them.

Ah Yu was reluctant to think in a worse direction.

She once reminded Pei Tianyi that she had also successfully changed the fate of her parents and brother, and the border pass in front of her had already changed differently from the original fate before she came.

So everything should be going in a better direction!

She gently rubbed the jade bracelet on her wrist, which was a gift from Xie Huai'an before leaving.

After copying the Buddhist scriptures at home for a few days, Ah Yu enshrined the Buddhist scriptures in the temple outside the city, and when he returned to the city, he happened to meet Deng Ao who was going out.

Although I am very concerned about when the poison on Deng Shuang's body will be lifted, it is not like Jin Xinyan, and he goes to the house where Deng Shuang temporarily lives every day, so Ah Yu only goes every few days.

She pinched her eyebrows and instructed the coachman outside to drive the carriage to the Deng Mansion.

Deng Ao next to him heard her words and stopped people.

"Today, Fan Zeyu invited us to the county government to gather, saying that there was something important to discuss. Old Lady Wen and Bullying Frost have already passed, and I received the invitation relatively late, and I was about to go over there. ”

He paused and said, "If Ah Yu wants to find a deception, why don't you go with me!" You don't have to go to the Deng Mansion......"

Go to the county office?

Or was it personally invited by the uncle of the Fan family?

Ah Yu couldn't help but clench the pages in her hand, most of the Buddhist scriptures she copied had been enshrined in front of the Buddha statue, only the one in her hand, because the page was stained with ink, and she took it back again.

An ominous premonition suddenly arose in her heart, and she changed her mind and asked the coachman to go to the county office.

The catcher at the gate of the county government saw the carriage and Deng Ao, and after recognizing the person, he sent someone to lead the way.

"You're here......"

Fan Zeyu described him as sitting haggardly on the top, and there was a white-clothed scholar sitting on his right hand, the scholar's hand was wrapped in his sleeves, the long hem of his clothes covered his feet, and the appearance of sitting upright made people feel indescribably awkward.

Deng Ao had seen the scholar in white and knew the identity of the other party.

When he saw the other party sitting next to Fan Zeyu like a guest, his heart was full of surprise.

"Shouldn't he have been sent to Yulin Pass with those people? Why are you still here, still ......" Deng Ao's words were not finished, but the rejection in his tone was evident.

The director smiled and said nothing, and his body was biased towards Fan Zeyu intentionally or unintentionally.

If it was time to change sides, Fan Zeyu would definitely have opened his mouth to reprimand him at this moment, but he didn't have the extra mood to mind this little thing now.

He didn't answer Deng Ao's words, but looked at Jin Xinyan at the door, and said, "Since everyone has already arrived, then you might as well start talking about business!" ”

The voice was weak, as if it had taken a big blow.

Ah Yu cautiously walked down the wall, walked behind Old Lady Wen, and sat down in the seat on his left.

Deng Ao frowned, a little unhappy with Fan Zeyu's attitude of avoiding talking about it.

Before he sat next to Deng Shuang, the later Jin Xinyan took his seat first, and he could only retreat and sit next to Ah Shuang.

Jin Xinyan didn't care about Fan Zeyu's attitude, he reached out and lifted the purple clay pot on the table, poured a cup of hot tea for Deng Shuang, brought it to her with his own hands, and whispered: "Drink tea first and moisten your throat!" ”

In the silence of the room, only his voice sounded quietly.

The people in the room subconsciously looked at him, but Fan Zeyu hugged his head.

He said: "Today, people from Yulin Pass said that the barbarians detained the pass at midnight, but fortunately, a small soldier on the city wall found the traces of the barbarians, led his comrades to fight the barbarians to the death, and forced them to come to the army to help. ”

However, some people cooperated with the barbarians, revealing the defensive layout of the city, and the barbarians attacked the city from three places, and the soldiers in the city scattered to support and defend the city with all their might. When the sky was getting white, the barbarians saw that Yulin Pass could not be attacked for a long time, so they withdrew their troops. ”

"The soldiers in the city suffered heavy casualties, and the bones of the few soldiers who first discovered the barbarian captivity have not yet been found......

Maybe it was after falling from the city wall and turning into a pile of mud, and outsiders could no longer recognize its appearance.

Or maybe it's because the swords have no eyes, and their bodies have been scattered in the process of the death battle, in short, they can't piece together the original appearance.

Only in the death register in the army, their names were ticked off with a red pen.

The battlefield is merciless, there is life and death.

When it doesn't involve itself, the news coming back from the battlefield is no different from the rumors on the streets and alleys to outsiders.

Ah Yu grabbed his sleeve and looked at Fan Zeyu with red eyes without blinking.

She knew that she was a junior and should not be the first to speak on such an occasion, but she still couldn't hold back when she thought of the person who had no news.

"The barbarians have been beaten back, so they shouldn't dare to come to Yulin Pass again in a short time!" Ah Yu opened his mouth cautiously, his eyes full of hesitation, "Xie Huai'an went to join the army a few days ago...... He...... Is it hurt? ”

I accidentally hurt my hand!

I can't even write a reply to her......

Since Xie Huai'an did not die in Lishui last year, then he should be safe at this time!

Ah Yu is looking forward to it from the bottom of my heart.

"Huai'an was placed on the city wall, and he was the first to discover the traces of the barbarians, and promptly notified the soldiers in the city......

Fan Zeyu said this with a smile.

He also said: "In the past, my sister and brother-in-law always said that Huai'an was a child's temper, and he would only mess around all day long, and he would not do anything serious. If they knew about Huai'an's exploits this time, they would be very happy! ”

Ah Yu's hand trembled, and he slammed on the edge of the square table next to him, and before he could feel the pain, the jade bracelet on his wrist shattered.

The jade bracelet that broke in two fell from mid-air, and after falling to the ground, only a pile of jade remains remained.

She immediately crouched down, trying to pick up the pieces on the ground.

The little girl with her head down silently picked up the fragments of the jade bracelet into the palm of her hand, but before she could pick up two pieces, tears had already fallen.

Old lady Wen didn't care about the crying granddaughter at this time, he looked at Deng Shuang and Jin Xinyan opposite.

The two people could also see a little sadness on their faces, but these sadness was only to regret the unfortunate untimely death of a young man who knew each other well, and pity the soldiers who were killed and injured at the border pass.

Their sadness is no better than that of the little girl squatting on the ground.

Jin Xinyan sighed and said, "Those traitors who colluded with the barbarians are really hateful, they have disregarded the lives of innocent people and put the people of the city under the butcher's knife of the barbarians!" ”

is so angry that he looks very upright, like a good person.

When Deng Shuang heard the news of Xie Huai'an's death, he suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart, but that feeling was fleeting.

She saw Ah Yu squatting on the ground picking up the fragments of the jade bracelet, and the little girl was squatting there motionless, her eyes falling down, obviously very sad.

It would be nice if Xie Huai'an was still alive.

Deng Shuang thought about it for no reason, but he understood that it was impossible.

She didn't understand why Fan Zeyu would find her, if it was to tell the news of Xie Huai'an's death and find Ah Yu and Mrs. Wen, she could still understand it.

After all, the Wen Xie family already had plans to get married.

As for finding her, it was because she had lived in Xie Huai'an's house for a few days before, or because of their kinship.

According to the blood relationship, she can still call Mrs. Xie a cousin, and she is also Xie Huai'an's aunt!

Deng Ao turned his suspicious eyes on Jin Xinyan, he always felt that many of Jin Xinyan's behaviors were extraordinarily abnormal, and he didn't know what role he played in this matter.
